Quotes snipped from a discussion thread at Starting Strength:

“momg is a DELIGHT — just arrived filled to the brim with his inimitable trademark sense of humor, fun stories, great ideas/concepts/references, and best of all, it proffers a hefty compendium of helpful information designed to improve your lifting, enhance your technique, and help you rebound from injuries/bad technique/and general foolishness.”

“I was expecting something along the lines of Strong Enough?, but I was pleasantly suprised when I saw the size (that’s what she said) of this book; like SS:BBT, but with smaller print. So in other words, there’s a lot of information in this book. It is a delight to read, because you can flip open to any page and get a little snippet of wisdom. I’ve been lurking on this forum for a long time, and I thought I had read everything, but now I realize how much I missed.”

“MOMG is 366 pages of 8.5 x 11″ paper that contains what were deemed the more interesting questions and discussions on the Q&A forum, with all the unhelpful discussion removed.

It breaks the discussions up into 19 chapters by category (e.g. questions pertaining to footwear, mistakes, eating, psychology, common beginner questions, programming, and so on).

On top of the large pages, the margins are small so the book is packed with as much information as possible; no worries there.

Essentially, you get all the questions and answers Mark and his buddy considered appropriate enough for printing, so that says something already. As mentioned previously, they took out all the useless crap so only the informative responses are included.

The bottom line: if you have a question, someone has most likely already asked it and had it answered. With this book, you’re bound to come across it, with the benefit of knowing what you’re reading will be helpful and not filled with a bunch of lame shit in between. Plus it doesn’t strain your eyes like a monitor, and is easier to bring to the shitter/bed/anywhere than a laptop.”

“I took MOMG to my nurse practitioner’s office today, because I’d rather read old interesting internet posts than old less-than-interesting magazines. She asked me what I was reading, and I showed her the cover. She said, “Oh, by the size of it, I thought it was a textbook!” Since I was there for an appointment, I didn’t have the time to explain to her how right she actually was.”
